Ismael Saibari makes strong early impact at Bayern Munich
Moroccan international midfielder Ismael Saibari is making a significant impact in his early tenure with Bayern Munich. Following a 5-1 victory over VfB Stuttgart, where he provided two assists, Bayern Munich sporting director Max Eberl expressed high satisfaction with the 24-year-old's creativity and immediate contribution to the squad.
In a recent interview with the club's official magazine, Saibari emphasized his commitment to giving 100% effort, stating he is ‘incapable of giving only 90%’. He noted that the club's aura and playing style, which he first observed while playing for PSV Eindhoven, were major factors in his decision to join. He also credited manager Vincent Kompany for his arrival, noting that Kompany assured him his offensive and defensive qualities would fit the Bavarian style.
Saibari, who wears number 34 in honor of Abdelhak Nouri, also reflected on his personal journey and the influence of his parents, whom he describes as his greatest role models. He highlighted their resilience after moving to Spain and Belgium to build a life from nothing.
